Short gold after the rebound!Fundamentals:
1. First, focus on Trump and the Fed’s dynamics;
2. Pay attention to whether geopolitical conflicts escalate, including the situation between India and Pakistan, Russia and Ukraine, and the situation between the United States and Iran, etc.
Technical aspects:
Although gold once rebounded from around 3267 under the circumstances of the ADP data being significantly positive, reversing the downward trend in the short term. However, the recent rebound high of gold only stopped at around 3330, and multiple top turning points were built in the 3320-3330 area, which greatly limited the height of gold’s rebound and further the bearish sentiment in the market. Therefore, I think the area around 3260 is not the low point of this round of decline. I think gold is very likely to continue to fall and continue to the 3240-3230 area, or even lower.
Trading strategy:
Consider shorting gold when it rebounds to the 3315-3325 area, and expect gold to fall below 3260 and completely open up the downward space!

Gold Price Analysis May 1The D1 candle has broken out in a bearish direction. It is not surprising that the price broke Dow and decreased according to yesterday's Plan.
Gold confirmed the selling side won, so today's strategy is to watch for SELL. The SELL point pays attention to the 2 break zones of 3270 and 3302. The BUY point with the Scalping element pays attention to 3216 and today's main support is 3195.
The current trading strategy is that gold is approaching the 3237 resistance. If it confirms closing above this zone, it will give a BUY signal to 3251 and consider the price reaction of the US session. If it breaks 3241, it will hold until 3270. On the contrary, if it does not break 3237, it can SELL to 3216 and trade according to the noted port zones.

My Gold Outlook for Monday:Looking at the current structure, I’m leaning bearish for Monday. Price has pushed up into a key resistance zone, and we're now trading inside a clear descending channel.
I’ll be watching for selling opportunities around the upper boundary of the channel — ideally after a rejection or a clear lower high formation. My first target would be around the mid-support zone, and if momentum is strong, a further drop into the larger Demand Zone below seems very possible.
As always, patience is key: I’ll wait for confirmation before entering any sell setups.
Just to be clear — I'm a regular guy who’s still learning and progressing in my trading journey. This is not financial advice, just me sharing my current view based on what I’m seeing on the charts. Always do your own analysis and manage your risk carefully!
Stay sharp and stay patient!

XAUUSD Bearish - SELLMarket Overview
Asset: Gold (XAU/USD)
Timeframe: 1H
Current Trend: Downtrend
Market Context:
Fundamental Drivers: Gold faces downward pressure due to a strengthening US Dollar, driven by the Fed’s hawkish outlook on April 28, 2025, with no anticipated rate cuts in Q2 2025. Rising US 10-year Treasury yields (near 4.6%) are reducing demand for non-yielding assets like Gold.
Recent Price Action: Gold rallied to the $2,450–$2,460 zone but was rejected, forming a lower high after failing to break above the 50-period EMA, consistent with a broader downtrend from the March 2025 high ($2,500).
Sentiment: Bearish sentiment prevails, with risk-on markets (e.g., S&P 500 gains) diminishing Gold’s safe-haven appeal.
Gold Price Analysis April 30The market's D frame continues to maintain a fixed price range, with a dispute between buyers and sellers in the range of 3345 and 3275.
With the sideways wave in recent days, the possibility of creating a Dow and decreasing the price of Gold will be higher than increasing to ATH slightly. Gold has just reacted from 3000 candle wick area yesterday, which is also the old breakout area. Gold can push up to 3324 in the European session. If it does not break 3324, it is possible to SELL Gold to 3275. However, the sideways waves may have a relatively strong reaction around 3288 and the reaction area of 3300 is also weak but still need attention. If it breaks through 3324, Gold will find daily resistance around 3340 for the SELL strategy.

If buyers manage to defend the weak support at $3,272.200, a potential rebound could occur.
Traders might consider long positions targeting resistance areas near $3,300 or higher.
Use a stop-loss just below the $3,270 level to manage risks.

If the price breaks below the weak support of $3,272.200, expect a bearish continuation toward lower levels, such as $3,250 or $3,200.
Short positions could be considered here, with a stop-loss above the POC.
Closing Thoughts: This chart provides a clear focus on critical support and volume zones. Traders should monitor price action around the 1D POC and weak support level for reliable signals.

Gold trading strategy for next Monday📊Judging from the trend of the daily chart, the overall gold price has been in a high-level consolidation trend recently. After falling from the high point near 3500, there has been a significant adjustment. At present, although the gold price has rebounded after the correction to the low point of the week, the rebound momentum is limited by the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level (about 3368-3370 area), which has been transformed into an important short-term resistance level.
📊On Friday, the gold market continued the rhythm of Thursday, and quickly rose to around 3370 in the early trading, but encountered resistance and fell back here, and then started a new round of downward trend, and fell below the low point of the previous day's European and American trading. It rebounded after the lowest point fell to around 3265. It is worth noting that the gold price not only failed to break through the key resistance above, but also further refreshed the short-term low, indicating that the market bearish sentiment is still dominant.
📊From the current market structure, the 3260-3265 area has become a key support level, and it is necessary to pay close attention to whether the subsequent trend can effectively break through it. Once it falls below $3260, the bearish trend will be further confirmed, and the gold price may usher in a deeper correction. Based on the current K-line morphological observation, a "two negatives and one positive" structure has been formed, which technically implies that there is still a risk of continued adjustment in the short term. However, the adjustment method may not be a unilateral decline, and there is also the possibility of correction in the form of sideways fluctuations (i.e. repeated fluctuations in the 3260-3370 range).
